Significant figures: Rules for zeros Leading zeros are not significant. Captive zeros are significant. Trailing zeros are significant, only IF there is a decimal point somewhere in the number. Leading zero Captive zero Trailing zero – three significant figures – four significant figures – five significant figures 11,420 – four significant figures
Other Ways of Thinking About Significant Figures… All digits are significant EXCEPT… Leading zeros Trailing zeros without a decimal point -- 2,500 Pacific Ocean = “Present” and Atlantic Ocean = “Absent” (ask about this one in class ) Courtesy Christy Johannesson
